Awkward and Awesome Thursday

How has your week been?

A little more awkward or a little more awesome?

 Awkward:

• Hitting a squirrel with my car.  That sound is just so creepy!
• Attempted to do a metallic and red mani.  Just ended up looking like I dipped the tips of my fingernails in blood.
• Ripping out 3 rooms of carpet.  Who knew it could tear up the skin on your hands and knees so badly?
• The ultra dead tree that fell in our backyard the other day during a storm.  No need to get the chainsaw out for this tree, that's how dead it is.
• The horrible experience that was downloading OS6 to my iPhone.  It took me a total of 3 hours and a restore to do it.

 Awesome:

• The cloud back up for iPhone.  I would have lost all of my data if it hadn't been for the cloud!
• Going to a fashion show tomorrow night for Charlotte Fashion week.
• I am on the board of our neighborhood women's club and we are hosting our first event tonight.
• Switched all my summer shoes with my winter shoes in my closet.
• Band-aids!  They are the best invention.

 I have to say I absolutely love my DIY boyfriend jeans. 

 They are like wearing pj's.

I did a little pattern mixing with the gingham and stripes

 and

 played the light coral shade off of the darker coral shade.

  I added the pearls for a bit of sophistication to an otherwise super casual look.
